Ray - although I am taking medication (Mirapex and Eldepryl), I also exercise daily. I use a Total Gym and either walk or use my Nordic Track. I think the exercise is of at least some help in controlling or helping cope with PD symptoms. Aside from several other benefits, it certainly helps me maintain a positive attitude.
